Why read it?
1 author picked The Poison Artist as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book is a real sleeper. If you haven’t read it, drop what you’re doing and order it; you won’t be disappointed. This book, more than any other, reminded me of Raymond Chandler in voice, story, and character. I am baffled that this book is not more widely known.

From David's list on Crime with deep character and stories.
